Chapter 153: Escape
Seeing that the Great Sage was angry, with a ferocious appearance of devouring people, a group of mortal horses were so frightened that their legs and feet were weak, and they knelt on the ground with a neighing roar, and they overturned all the women on their backs, and rolled all over the ground. I didn't want the Great Sage to have such a power in a rage, the women were so frightened that their souls flew out of the sky, and they were shocked, and the leader of the guards stood up in embarrassment, and bowed his hand and said: "The Great Sage has misunderstood, although we were ordered to come to chase you, but out of sincerity, there is no malicious intention. ”
Recognizing that this leader was actually the well-spoken post man who was newly promoted to the post post of the Golden Courtyard Pavilion, Tang Sanzang couldn't help but be curious in his heart, and asked: "Aren't you the new post keeper of the Golden Pavilion Pavilion, didn't you be fined for half a year for your crimes, how did you get promoted to the Imperial Forest Army so quickly, it seems that he is still a big leader, there must be a reason for it, I don't know if I can see it?"
I don't want the holy monk to remember himself, the leader was surprised, his face was bright, his face was bright, his face was bright, and he bowed down and said: "I don't want the holy monk to recognize the disciple, and I feel very honored, this is indeed because of the punishment of crimes, but Her Majesty has just ascended to the throne, and she is thirsty for talent, and the edict has issued an example. Although the disciple is guilty, in line with the concept that the rise and fall of the world is responsible, he does not think that his own talent is shallow and self-indulgent, and he goes to take the exam with a shy face, and does not want to pass the test in one fell swoop, thanks to His Majesty's refusal to give up, he was exceptionally promoted to the deputy commander of the left army of the Royal Forest Army, and his subordinates also led the hundred and ten people, but His Majesty's reward and punishment for governing the country are clear, because the disciple was guilty before, although he was promoted, he was still fined for half a year, and he was not allowed to indulge in delusion, this is a judgment, but the disciple is also willing. ”
Sanzang couldn't help but nod when he heard this, and sighed: "I don't want Your Majesty to rule the country so clearly, when you are a generation of holy masters, like you are as talented, you should be promoted to the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army, but you just wait to chase us like this, what do you mean?"
The deputy commander of the left army chuckled, and arched his hand: "The holy monk is too anxious to go, and he doesn't say goodbye to my lord and His Majesty, and he leaves in such a hurry, which is to trap my Xiliang daughter country in injustice." Her Majesty heard the news from the soldiers, and when she heard that the elders had said goodbye, she immediately ordered the left guard of my Imperial Forest Army to chase after the holy monk, and in any case it was necessary to invite the holy monk to return and feast generously to atone for the sin of rudeness left behind, and also ask the holy monk to follow the disciples back to the imperial city temporarily, and after you have prepared all the expenses for the journey, you will set off again, wouldn't it be a convenience?"
As soon as the words came out, Tang Sanzang waved his hand again and again, and said resolutely: "No, no, Your Majesty's kindness is appreciated by the poor monk, but we have already arrived here, how can we still return, and go for a long time? ”
The deputy commander of the left army was willing to let go, and asked each other vigorously: "If the holy monk wants to express his gratitude, he will go to the queen and say, how can the disciple dare to transgress and convey it? ”
As soon as the words came out, all the female soldiers knelt on the ground, begging the holy monk to bend their toes and turn back, which was tragic and miserable, making people really unbearable to watch.
Tang Sanzang laughed, shook his head leisurely and said: "My lord's words are ridiculous, although the monks are compassionate, they also have the wisdom to perceive the world, and they are not fools who are confused by the appearance of facts. The queen of your country is a peerless holy lord, how can she kill the people of the world with a word, and the poor monk has already made an oath in front of the Buddha, if you do not obtain the true scriptures, you will never go back half a step to the east, although you will not regret it. ”
The corners of the mouth of the deputy commander of the left army pulled up a smile, and he actually got up and sighed with his hand: "The holy monk is really well versed in affairs, and he is a peerless master, this matter is indeed not His Majesty's original intention, it is the disciple's clumsy plan to invite the holy monk to return, and he said his own words, and he didn't want to be seen by the holy monk in a moment, so at this time he knew the big difference in intelligence between them." It is a pity that the prime minister of Zuoban is aware of the situation, and insists that the holy monk will not turn back when he goes, and he wants His Majesty to make a plan in his heart. His Majesty felt his words, and asked his disciples to make these two preparations, if the holy monk insisted on refusing to turn back, he asked the disciple to convey His Majesty's apology, and in a hurry, he did not have time to prepare, and only offered several sets of winter clothes that the imperial craftsmen had already made, plus 10,000 taels of silver, to support your westward journey. ”
As he spoke, the Imperial Forest Army behind him crawled forward, presented several packages, plus a gorgeous brocade box, and handed them to Tang Sanzang.
The archmage couldn't help but be moved, waved his hand and sighed: "Her Majesty the Queen is so gracious, it is too gracious, how dare you enjoy such a big gift? The poor monk is only willing to accept these sets of winter clothes, and as for these ten thousand taels of silver, he does not dare to accept them. ”
The deputy commander of the left army was in a hurry, gritted his teeth and bowed his head and said: "It is the holy monk who is too humble, the elders have the great grace of my Xiliang daughter country to stabilize the country and the country, and the ten thousand taels of silver are enough to worry about the teeth, ask the holy monk to accept it, so that it can be used on the way, so that my majesty can feel a little at ease." ”
Sanzang shook his head again and again when he heard this, and said resolutely: "If it doesn't work, we are determined to help each other, but how can we humiliate each other with money, it is to despise our sincerity, ten thousand taels of silver, we will not dare to accept each other, there is no room for negotiation." Please also return to Her Majesty the Queen, we have already earned three thousand taels of silver from the lord of Yunyang, which is enough to spend along the way, and the two silver gifts are only accepted. ”
Seeing that the holy monk insisted on refusing to accept it, the deputy commander of the left army was helpless, so he only sighed faintly and said: "I don't want the holy monk to be so high-spirited, the disciple admires it in his heart, how dare he make a mistake, the disciple is duty, it is inconvenient to send it away, and please take care of the holy monk's future, and I would like to accept the disciple's three bows." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she knelt on the ground and bowed three times heavily, and then dozens of royal forest soldiers also bowed three times with her.
bluffed Tang Sanzang into sweating, and said again and again: "You don't have to be like this, you really want to torture the poor monk." I'll wait for myself to hit the road, and then I'll send it away without any work. ”
After speaking, he led a group of disciples, took the winter coat, and walked non-stop to the west avenue, Kankan walked for several miles, and then the archmage stopped, hit his forehead with his hand and said: "Damn, I have been guarded for a long time, and my IQ has decreased a lot, obviously there is a horse to ride, but I want to walk, but I was caught up by this group of people, and it took a lot of time. Die Ao Bai, didn't you hear Master's words, hurry up and turn into a white horse, see if Lao Tzu is tired. ”
Ao Bai laughed when he heard this, and teased: "Master, I thought that you had been suppressed for a long time, and this would suddenly get out of trouble, and I wanted to walk around and exercise, but I didn't want to ride a horse, but I looked down on you." ”
Sanzang listened with disdain on his face, and scolded: "This dead Xiaobai, when will you follow the monkeys and they will bark and scream, there are horses that don't ride and walk, and you are stupid when you are old?" Okay, go quickly, this Xiliang daughter country is the right and wrong place, now we are walking, but we don't hurry up to escape, no matter how late it is, maybe what will happen?"
Hearing what the master said was terrifying, and remembering the scene where he was still besieged by a group of girls as a white horse, Ao Bai couldn't help but be moved, and immediately let out a soft whistle, turned into a white horse, was saddle bridled, and galloped forward with the master like a splashing wind.
The group only walked a few miles, and the ground in front of them was covered with a shadow under the projection of the mountains, suppressing the original scorching summer like late autumn.
Tang Sanzang squinted his eyes to enjoy this rare coolness, his heart was comfortable, and he said with high aspirations: "I am from the south, I have really never seen a big snowy mountain with a radius of 100 miles, I want to take a good look at it today." ”
The monkey scoffed when he heard this, and reminded him seriously: "Master, don't be too happy, this has not yet entered the mountain, naturally it does not show its might, when my grandson was looking for Xiuning, it was this snow-capped mountain, the snow was white all over the mountain, the wind roared, the cold was pressing, and I almost didn't freeze my grandson into a popsicle, so that I still think about it, I can't help but feel a wind down my spine, and I shudder." ”
Sanzang glanced at him coldly, and said with disdain angrily: "This dead monkey, Lao Tzu easily got out of the daughter country of Xiliang, and he was happy in his heart, but he came to the opposite tune, you were in an urgent situation, and you didn't prepare, so you choked enough, let's be prepared, put on the winter clothes made by the court masters of the daughter country, and don't freeze half a cold hair." ”
Wukong didn't feel that he shook his head, and said unusually worriedly: "Master, you can't help but look down on this set of winter clothes, if you really go to the top of the snowy mountain, the wind is played, and the cold is biting, let alone a set of winter clothes, even if you come to ten sets of eight sets, it may not work." Otherwise, how could my old grandson, a dignified Monkey King, with a copper head and iron arms, be so embarrassed by the snow-capped mountains?"
Sanzang was shocked when he heard this, and smacked his tongue: "Damn, if it's really so cold, how can you walk without being frozen to death inside?"
The monkey shrugged his shoulders and continued: "Not only that, but there are still a few extremely dangerous places in this mountain, which are really difficult and difficult to walk, and take people's lives, so you need to be very cautious to get through. ”
Hearing him say something terrifying, Bajie only felt his chest jump suddenly, and couldn't help shrinking his head, and said weakly: "But what are the dangerous places, saying it makes me have some plans in my heart, and when it comes to the end, I won't be at a loss and in a hurry." ”
